online cannon fodder for the oldies :)

If your waiting for a WONDER WOMAN CoD SERVER.. You will have to wait unitl the kid-o's get tired of BF3 and MW3.. Which with thier sound byte att span should only take a few weeks.. Than maybe one of those Quake servers will put up a CoD server with realism set to zero for ya

well the thing wonderwoman view is more realistic than cockpit view

you know you have binocular vision, you can move the head to look behind the nose

would it be a cheat if i used stereosocpic softawer and set each virtual eye so wide as to be out of the plane?

humm would that be ethical?

I think you need to get away from the idea of a 1000 people online playing like hyperlobby. What I have seen online in CoD is similar to RoF, where you have a couple of servers, and <100 people flying at any one time.
No idea why that would be, but it seems to be the way things are these days. On the other hand, I know a lot of people who are currently not flying, either because they are waiting for patches, or their computers are not up to it. Il2 '46 did not need a great computer to play, and running servers was also much easier to do.
People are always welcome to buy copies of CoD for other people, after all its pretty cheap now. RoF can afford to give the game away free, because they know they will get their money back (and more) through selling planes and 'field mods'.
How would the devs of CoD make any money if they gave it away?

binocular vision and moving your head are two different things.. and neither will allow you to look behind the nose of the plane.. small close (arms reach) objects like the P47 canopy brace down the center of the canopy will apear to be transparent due to binocual vision.. but large objects that are farther out will not apear to be transparent

I don't think you know what cheat means.. let alone how human vision works

nono by moving your head totally right and totally left you can look at lot behind the nose, not under but you can ahead and slightly under

hell do you really think they took of blinded by the nose like the game?

Alot yes.. but all you have done is shift your view by moving your head, by shifting your view the nose still blocks the same amout of your view, just a different part of your view. Which is not the case with WONDER WOMAN VIEW where the nose is gone and blocks NONE of your view. Which is why WONDER WOMAN VIEW is NOT more realistic

Yes as I discribed above

if you move your head to the right the nose move to the left

in fact if you make a composed image taken from left and right the nose is virtually invisible

i know cause of my dreams

but you havent paid attention to the picture:

the front lateral windows is like 4 cm away from the nose laterally

what do you thin that window is for but to look behind the nose?

edit:

pay attention to the back lateral windown and notice how it aslo has the inward angle

what i said wonderwoman view :)
